The courtroom was silent on Oct. 1 when the clerk read the verdict aloud: F ormer Marion County Sheriff's Deputy Leslie Dale Boileau Jr. was guilty of manslaughter with a firearm.
Boileau, 33, was handcuffed by a bailiff after the verdict was announced. His lawyer, former Circuit Judge Anthony Tatti, asked Circuit Judge Timothy McCourt if Boileau could remain free pending sentencing. The judge said no.
